Development of an intelligent multimodal biometric system for household appliances control

Over the years, biometrics features which include but not limited to face, fingerprints, iris, hand geometry, palmprint have been explored as a means of individual/ personal recognition. However, the existing spectra of biometric devices in real world application are contact-based devices and are mo...
